GENERAL GUIDELINES 

 
MY 250 

is a lighting effect for professional use on stages, in clubs, theatres, and so on.   

This fixture should only be operated at the voltage, which stated in the technical specifications in the last page 
of this manual. 

MY 250

 is designed for indoor use only. 

MY 250

 is not designed for permanent operation. Consistent operation breaks may ensure that the device will 

serve you for a long time without defects.   
Do not shake 

MY 250

Do not use physical force when installing or operating 

MY 250

While choosing the installation position, please make sure that 

MY 250

 is not exposed to extreme heat, 

moisture or dust.   
The minimum distance from 

MY 250

 output front lens to any illuminated surface must be more than 3 feet.   

Please be careful what surface you shine the light onto; light also has heat and this can affect the illuminated 
surface. 

Elektralite

 will not be responsible for fading, color distortion or heat distortion caused by the light 

beam. 
When you hang 

MY 250 

please use an appropriate safety cable. Please make sure that any hanging 

equipment, like threaded rod or C clamp is appropriate for the job. Remember, with a moving yoke fixture, that 
the momentum of moving this large mass will cause extra “stress” on any mounting materials. When mounting   

MY 250

 in the air be sure to use bolts which are M10.The M10 bolts should be 

no less

 than 25mm long and the 

thread type should be 1.5mm.   
Metric explanation:- If you go to a good hardware store (like Home Depot or Lowe’s) you will be purchasing 
bolts that have written on the packaging 10mm x 1.5mm x 25mm. [The last figure of 25mm can be a higher 
value read on]. 
10mm is the diameter of the bolt itself. 10mm is roughly 0.4 of an inch. In engineering drawings 10mm is also 
written or described as M10. 
1.5mm is the distance between each thread or turn of the screw. Engineering drawings refer to this as the pitch 
of the screw. Now in places like Home Depot they stock 10mm bolts with 1.0mm, 1.25mm and 1.5mm pitch. So 
be careful you buy the right pitch: 1.5mm. 
25mm is the 

minimum

 length of bolt you should use. Bolts are available in 5mm steps. So you can get 25mm, 

30mm, 35mm and so on. Choose the bolt that best fits the length you will need to hold the C clamp or whatever 
clamping device you will be using. 
Finally, just FYI 25.4mm is 1 inch. 
 
Only operate 

MY 250

 you know its functions. Do not permit operation by persons not qualified. 

 
Please use the original packaging if the device is to be transported. [Beware the majority of shipping 
companies will not accept any liability for damage if the fixture is not shipped in the manufacturer’s original box 
and insert packaging material]. 
 
If this fixture is operated in any other way different to that described in this manual, the fixture could be 
damaged and any warranty would be void.   
 

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 

 

A). Installing or replacing the lamp 

1.  Install the lamp with the fixture unplugged from the electric source. 

Never try to replace a lamp with the fixture still turned on and still hooked up to the electric. 

2.  If you are replacing the lamp, before opening the housing to replace it,   

let it cool down to room temperature. The lamp burns at very high 
temperatures and it is a discharge lamp. If the lamp has been running then 
expect anything up to half an hour before the housing is cool enough to 
consider even opening up. 

3.  When installing a new lamp do not touch any glass part of the lamp.   

Always use a clean cloth to handle lamps. The sweat from your fingers will cause the lamp to 
burn incorrectly and will shorten lamp life. If you do touch the glass, then check in the lamp box
